His mouth was burning hot on mine, his eyes drilling into mine, his arm tucked around my waist, the muscles in his jaws jumping. "Do you...do you love me?"
Rain pelted down on our clothes, on our skin, wetting us and drenching us. I mustered the courage to look straight into those electrifying green eyes, swallowing so deeply and intensely that I hurt to breathe and to swallow, my mouth feeling as dry as concrete.
"Do you love me?" he repeated, his voice getting louder by every word, as he shook me hard, my teeth shuddering in my skull.
The only sound was rain, as I shivered in cold, and buried my head on his chest, his minty breath caressing my face, as I said in the lowest and the most sincere voice, peering at him with my mouth twitching into an unhidable (if there's even such a word, dude!) smile.
"Yes. Yes of course."

Chloe is a girl who can be described in one word: nerd. She's shorter than the average, has boring black curls, and is certainly unattractive. Or so she thinks. When she meets the ultimate funny, quirky new guy, Zachary Freshwater, her once-ordinary world is shaken up by adventures.
Zachary acts and talks like he has known her all her life, and even plans a grand revenge plan for her to be the It girl and retaliate on her possessive ex-boyfriends.
As she rises up to sit on the throne of the School Queen, her heart is torn- between her present gentleman boyfriend, Colton, and Zachary, the quirky, somehow odd and smart boy who knows how to fight as well as a gangster.
In the walls of Shaw High, a mysterious high school, Chloe has to learn one thing that can be the easiest and the most difficult: to know how to listen to her own heart.
I would bet none of you have ever had that dream summer that all of us want.... that summer where you meet a boy on the beach and go surfing even though you don't know how to surf. That summer where you look him in the eyes while he runs his fingers through your hair. That summer where you skateboard along empty streets at sunset and accidentally steal candy from a grocery store.
Well... I didn't get that.... but I got pretty close to it.
Because for the summer I went to an island in the middle of nowhere so my dad could start up a new one of his businesses in his chain of stores. I went to the beach.
And I met Royce... Royce was two years older than me and had the prettiest purplish eyes and blonde hair. He was the most charismatic person I'd ever met.
Then shortly after me and Royce's first appearance we met Jack and Koa.
It was amazing and I loved every second of it, until I realized that I had fallen for Royce.
And he seemed to fall for me too!
Until another girl came into the mix
𖣔
"Do you hate me or not Royce?"
"I wish I never fucking spoke to you because god I hate you so fucking much for making me love you! It's your fucking fault! Fuck you!"
"And do you love her?!"
"Way more than I will ever love you."
